     Uses a project or repository's history to plot user contributions, displaying an elegant, colored graph of the file arborescence.

     After running it on quite different projects...

     • Python/Bash CI/Jenkins scripts
     • Qt apps: GoldenDict, Psi+
     • PHP website: Shaarli

     ...watching some vids on teh intartubez:

     • Minecraft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjTyRly5WA
     • Linux kernel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhDiYPLo3p4
     • Python: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNBtDstOTmA

     It allows to arbitrary spot some interesting implementation aspects (sorted by descending impact):

     • language-dependent trees (oh hai Java packages ^^)
     • framework-dependent trees
     • project-management method (none, Agile, TDD)

     Having a graphical tool also quickly shows:

     • the overall structure of the project (a bit cooler than a simple $ tree, way quicker than loading the project on an IDE)
     • the repartition of files (by extensions)
     • who are the most active contributors
     • what are the most modified files over time
     • who does what: additions, deletions, refactoring

     Some more CI-related matters:

     • are there any tests?
     • what is the source code / test code ratio? (we could expect a project/lib with N modules to have at least N test modules)
     • who initiates / implements / optimizes test code?

     Get ready for:

     • basic Python exercises (data structures, language features, common libraries)
     • a handful exercises on string and data processing
     • algorithmics! pathfinding, map exploration, optimization...
